Abstract

RAMOS, Conrado. The “resentment of the warrior”: reflections on the body and education based on the works of Theodor Adorno and the Psychoanalysis. Interações [online]. 2006, vol.11, n.21, pp.9-28. ISSN 1413-2907.

From the Psychoanalysis and the Critical Theory, this paper reflects over the social domination of the body. It´s sustained that there is no education that doesn´t act upon the instincts and that doesn´t mark on the individual´s body. The Physical Education classes are a special place for the appearance of the “resentment of the warrior” (T.W. Adorno), the revenge of the physical force, dissassociated of the intelect and underrated on the labour social division. Understanding the resentment as a “memory” of the domination hinders the appearance of violence as an acting out and allows the counsciousness of the body domination.

Keywords : Critical theory; Psychoanalysis; Physical education; Body; Domination.
